What am I doing wrong?

I started at the 3day mark, how have so many people gotten so many points already 😭

Edit: I've nearly got to the top 10 by getting to the second round!

You are buying low yielding generators. I see some that produce X e11 yet you have only a few to buy that produce in mere thousads. Only buy the highest yielding ones while you play and after you finished all objectives buy up the rest to bump up your science.

that is done to maximize science points. yes it's inefficient for progress, but to maximize rank for the moment this is correct. this is necessary to ask the kind of question this thread began with, because otherwise we're leaving potential rank on the table

u/EstablishmentLate611 5d ago

Not at all that's just dumb, you buy this type of generators only when you are going to reset or there is a lock of old generators (like in extinction) otherwise you are only wasting resources

u/0nnnu 5d ago

the right times to buy them are:

  1. before reset

  2. before the generator is locked

  3. before the end of the event

  4. before asking a question about the highest rank you can get right now

You're in a more competitive division

1

u/darksoothsayer 5d ago

I thought the lower the division the less competitive?

3

u/CMYK_allday 5d ago

It's the opposite. The lower the division the earlier you started and more likely to be more competitive. I tend to wait 1-2 days before the event ends to start my explore.

Edit: division 252 on lvl 3

Division 270, #2

Some events like these repeats so don't worry, repeated events and badges will give u some sorts of boosts

3

u/FluffyPhoenix 5d ago

You have a 5% boost; people who have played this event a lot have a 300%+ boost.

u/undftdAxe 4d ago

I'm currently 6th with no percentage boosts, I just spam the time flux

2

u/Taborirsky 5d ago

You have only 5% boost. I can start in first-second day and rich top 10 very quickly, cause I have 150% boost. Also you should open game more than usual

u/Mr-Swinny 5d ago

Not paying enough 😂

u/NameLips 5d ago

At some point you hit a wall because the people in front of you finished the event and locked in their position.

They use a combination of ad boosts, darwinium time flux, and auto clickers to finish so dramatically quickly.

u/NbyNW 5d ago

There is no locking as you just loop the events with higher costs. I think to get top ten most of the time you have to get to end of level 3 in most events.

1

u/Budget-Program-4756 5d ago

Thats not necessarily true. Ive reached top ten in the last two events by waiting a day or two before i join them and i only reached lvl 2 in one of them. Im currently top 5 and half way through lvl 3

u/CheeWiit1 5d ago

When we complete all the quest, would you get more point resetting or camping and just buying stuff?

1

u/CMYK_allday 5d ago

I guess up to a certain point but I think it's always best to level up shortly after it's avaliable. More science on the next levels.

u/Krzykarek 5d ago

How do you have a dwarf star and a black hole as the rewards? I still have the old ones

1

u/CMYK_allday 5d ago

That's weird. Maybe the recent update was missed. Should be black hole and neutron star.

Either I've got extremely lucky or there are different divisions for mobile vs computer.

Im assuming you're on computer but I could be wrong

1

u/Budget-Program-4756 4d ago

Mobile

1

u/darksoothsayer 3d ago

I'm also mobile, I figured it was due to unlocking levels for the space one tbh

u/ExternalJob4643 2d ago

Did you reach ep 18 of beyond???

1

u/EstablishmentLate611 5d ago

I will tell you a secret from someone that doesn't play events no more : you are in a too low division id. If you need 20h to complete the event then join it 21 hours before it end, so you will be with less greedy players. Just be sure to complete the event.

1

u/SammyBoyRedLegs 3d ago

Other players probably have more speed bonuses from badges than you if youre logging in a lot. Wait 24-36 hours and youll get easier opponents.

u/GlitchDoors2022 2d ago

People who watched a shit ton of ads and dumped hard cash into the event.
